If i swat someone out f bounds or grt a real nice and 1, ill casually slap them on the butt and say "good try" or "maybe next time". Its really jokey and casual but it gets under their skin at the same time. The spank is a must and you have to say it cheery like your talking to a kid.
Trash talk can get real cheesy sometimes, I like to keep it simple. I'm a tough matchup cause I take other guards in the post and use my size and body when I drive, and if a big switches on me I'm quicker and cross them up. So after a bucket it's just a "too slow" or "too weak" from me. I don't gotta yell it or pound on my chest, for me the trash talking is for me, not them. It's not about getting in their head for me, it just gets me in that zone and gives me so much more confidence. :pimp:
"They call me the grand larcinest cause I'm always lookin' for the steal."
"They call me Home Depot Junior Sales Associate because I'm always grabbin' boards."
"They call me Neo 'cause I'm always knockin' down shots."

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMM
Unless someone starts shit with me I'm very generic. If someone is being overly aggressive on D reaching.. and I spin off of them and hit a jumper or layup I'll tell them the classic "You reach.. I teach". I call my shots mostly though. Like I'll be posting someone up and say "Left shoulder" and hit a fade after spinning left. If a shot feels good I usually say "Got it".
If someone starts trying to play mind games I'll return it though. I can talk with the best of them if you piss me off. It's my Cuban side mangggg. :lol
Simple one :
"Can
"GET THE **** OUTTA MY FACE"
Or depending on who I'm playing with hit em with something personal
I don't really trash talk, but if I'm feelin good and knocking down shots I'll call out "all day" after making a bucket sometimes.
Money!
And1!
Give me the ball, I'm gonna close this out...
Pretty limited stuff really...

You don't say that.
Being a fat person, (not a comedically fat baller, just a chubby dude with no hops, deceptive agility) I'm constantly trying to get an intellectual edge on the court. I find that trash talking usually deters that.
I often get trash talked to, usually people eventually shut up when I don't bite/I dominate them. Sometimes they don't shut up, sometimes I get dominated and trash talked to, usually brothers. Whitey who can ball is usually more sympathetic to one's plight.
[QUOTE=Alonzo Magic]You don't say that.[/QUOTE]
I will use it tonight and report back.
just yell "mismatch" everytime you want/have the ball, even the defender is the same size or bigger than you.
"Cookies!"
"Get your *** up."
"Tricks are for kids."
[QUOTE=ace23]"Cookies!"
[/QUOTE]
Haha, I say "Cookies!" to my little brothers all the time but I'm not baller enough to pull it off with a straight face in real games. I remember it used to be one of like, four things players would say in Streetball mode in NBA 2K6 or something.
You guys yell cookies?
When I shoot a jumper in someone's face I yell
"VISINE"
Cause it's in your eye.
:pimp:
Or "bang, bang"
"Trick Or Treat"
"Lights out nigguh"
..
.....
and when they dont contest my shot, I always end up sayin this "Hand Down Man Down" (THANKS TO MARK JACKSON :roll: :roll: )
and wanna know every time I say that? I always end up in the hospital lol
I dont talk much on offense.. most of the talking comes on the defensive end when I'm pressing someone hard off the ball or as they bring it up the court and when I'm boxing out. I swear there is nothing funner in basketball than guarding the best player on the other team and just expending all of your energy not letting him get the ball/talking to him at the same time.

Next time your playing if a guy says you're fat, tell him you're only that way because every time you did his girlfriend she gives you a cookie, has worked for me many times.
If my jumper is hot, all I say is "bucket"..
If I'm going hard in the paint or dunking, then it's "you better move lil man"...this is the best when the defender is bigger than me lol
If I'm playing hard-nosed defense, then it's "you don't wanna do that. That's not your game. Just take the jumper and make it easy on yourself. Come inside and I'll swat that shit"

Some of that shit sounds real lame unless you were ****ing around and playing with good friends.
Like a few others, when I'm playing a game I don't say anything unless someone starts talking to me.
I seriously doubt most of you play serious basketball. On the court you're not going to be able to play 100% while talking, most of the times you only have time to say a couple words.
i don't talk at all unless somebody starts talking to me. today this asian guy was guarding me and playing pretty tough d and i took a contested jumper and missed and he was like "hell nahh!" so naturally i got mad and came right back at him next possession and hit a baseline fadeaway in his eyeball and he was like "**** that" and i just kept antagonizing him saying that's all day and i can get that whenever i want. i worked that fool today.

Dead moments, Out of bounds.. Free throws, etc? I only talk trash when I know I'm better then my direct opponent, usually works cause they'll try to take me 1 on 1, if I'm right and I'm actually the better player I'll take advantage of their egos..
most recently me and friends got into a heated game with a group of strangers who were frds
i was locking my man down, he was clearly irritated and tried to call some bs fouls, anyways i was just talking in his face all game on defense get into his head
"cant past me in your dreams son" even though he was probably older
"sorry this road is closed"
"shoot it, i dare you i double dare you" = air ball
"was that good for u as it was for me?"
"do you like that ? i know i did"
and of course i hit the game winner, and said
"good game guys, both teams played hard"
the icing was that i was wearing skinny jeans and armani loafers in this game, peer pressured game
true stuckey story
edit: lol good times cant believe i said that sh1t
In all honesty, I realized at a very young age that I am an absolutely horrible trash talker so I've never even tried to break into that realm. Anything I say comes across as weak, forced, and insincere. I think I came to this realization after I beat a kid in a game of one-on-one in 6th grade and walked away, saying, "Just look the shirt, man" (I was wearing an AND1 shirt that said "I'm sorry, I thought you could play on the back). Even back then, I cringed with embarrassment almost immediately after I said it.
Really, the only time I'll ever consider talking trash is when I'm being ironic while I'm playing with a group of friends or my younger brothers. For instance, one year when I was coaching 8th grade basketball, we played against a player who wore full Under Armour and was just downright obnoxious. Midway through the game, during a confrontation, he challenged, in all seriousness, "You wanna play?! Let's play!" So sometimes, I'll drop that line just to be ridiculous.
I don't use one liners but I talk a lot of ish as I'm making my moves like "don't give me that much space!" or "you gotta guard me closer than that."
Also when I'm defending a player who's about to iso I like to give them a lot of room out of their jumpshot range then challenge them to take it.
A lot of idiots start jacking up shots trying to prove me wrong lol
lol....
I usually only spew out a few quick words...
if i block someone or blow by someone, i'll be like "nuh uh"
if i shoot and someone calls "short" or "board" and i make it i'll just cup my ear and say "what?"
I can't imagine spewing out any of those ridiculous lines listed above.

No man should brag about wearing skinny jeans EVER. Man card revoked.

This isn't the 90s anymore bro, get with the times.. :pimp:
This isnt the 80's anymore. There is no justification to it.
When I am defending I sometimes just say No!. no! No! then if I get a block or a stop I just say 'i said no'.
idk if its trash talking, but i like to pretend im a commentator. i hit a lot of bank shots, its kinda my thing.. so when i shoot and know (think) its going in, before it hits the backboard i yell 'HE BANKED IT!'
lol people like that one a lot actually, always gets laughs. more effective if the defense was tight
I say "peace" to my friend when I get past him. As is see you later, I'm gone. :lol It's become a joke haha.

This one or I just dance in the dude's face. Next time, I hit a sexy 3, imma Tebow though
your fat, short and have no chance whatsoever of scoring on me.
everytime I hit a nice shot, layup or dunk I just yell "Insidehoops bi.tch"
[QUOTE=CeltsGarlic]everytime I hit a nice shot, layup or dunk I just yell "Insidehoops bi.tch"[/QUOTE]
Ha, I like the idea of incorporating InsideHoops into my game. Maybe I can blow past my defender for an easy deuce then say something like, "Looks like you've been spending too much time in the Off the Court Lounge"
